General HP fandom: Fred's death was so sad. His death was pointless and Percy should have died instead! Look at how George is suffering! No one liked Percy anyway!

Me: It's a pity JKR didn't kill George too while she was at it.

[four2andnew]

Saw a post on Reddit, and now I have feelings. Allow me to stand on this here soap box for a minute.

JKR has stated that Fred and George figured out the passphrase for the Maurader's Map by being coached through it by the map itself. This makes me all the more irritated with the line "Never trust anything if you can't tell where it keeps its brain" and I absolutely hate that she made Arthur Weasley say it. It's a moment completely out of character for him, a man who offers soft comfort and encouragement to his children every day. A man who only ever raised his voice once in 7 books when his sons took a prank too far and intentionally caused harm. There's no way he would berate his daughter, who is clearly torn up about what happened, for getting manipulated, especially not as the first words he speaks to her after she was minutes away from death.

Inconsistent world building leads to inconsistent characters. It's literally never addressed that the map is sentient, just like the fucking diary. Nope, we're just told talking diary = evil, and dumb Ginny should have known better; meanwhile, talking map = funny and brilliant piece of magic.

Fred and George fucked around with a parchment that coached them how to reveal enchantments on it and nothing happened to them. How the hell was an 11yo girl supposed to assume her talking diary was nefarious??? She lives in a literal world of magic where letters scream at you and mirrors offer encouragement and grooming tips. Why the fuck *wouldn't* a magical diary offer sympathy and soothing words, friendship and camaraderie??

I have to step off this soap box, I could ramble on forever, so I'll part with these words - JKR did Ginny dirty

Let's talk about Harry Potter shall we

First of all, I would like to make it clear that I do not condone hateful language, if you disagree with me fine but you can do so respectfully this means you don't accuse me of lying or call me names. If you do I will delete your comment and block you I have no time for that.

Albus Dumbledore is both a villain and a hero.

Our lovely headmaster is a master manipulator and while he cares for the greater good of the society I don't think he cares for the greater good of individuals. We all know of his relationship with Grindelwald but the loss he suffered due to the different paths they choose to take in life. I can see the headmaster as a protector but at the same time, he fashions himself to be all-knowing while holding back critical information. The Horcruxes were vile but I'm sure if he had asked in the right places for help he would have known how to remove it from Harry.

He set the boy up to die and manipulated Harry on several occasions. I also want to ask WHY DID HE NOT GIVE BACK THE INVISIBILITY CLOAK? Honestly, I have so many questions about the reasons behind this man's decisions.

Ron Weasley in the movie is not the best friend or boyfriend.

I don't care who you ship with these two however realistically speaking these two would not work. While the book Ron is a much better friend than the movie Ron and has more lines than the movie ron. He is not the ideal friend or boyfriend to anyone he has a nasty habit of abandoning Harry the Goblet of Fire and deathly hallows two. For those of you who are ready to blame the Horcrux shut up. If it were Hermione who left y'all would be up in arms.

Ron may support Harry in his battles and occasionally in his worst times but he is quick to anger and jealousy but rather lazy and sometimes downright cruel.

When it comes to his relationship with Hermione I personally see it as wasteful or a high school love that fades after a year or two probably less. Hermione is ambitious, hardworking and quite determined she is intelligent and fierce. Ron however while he is smart (when he wants to be) lacks ambition and is lazy unless it's something he likes and he does not understand Hermione much.

They Lack shared interests other than magic and Harry the two are very different but they share a trauma bond right. Also, does anyone notice that Ron is quicker to find fault with Hermione than positive things? At least he admits she is scary but brilliant.

Molly Weasley is either too controlling or really dumb.

First of all her response to the bars on the windows and Harry barely being fed bothers me what kind of parent says that. Second of all that woman is not supportive of Fred and George at all and it irritates me. I know that they are identical twins but I have been around identical twins and can easily tell them apart these are your sons lady.

She harps and harps about a ministry job but Charlie is a dragon tamer in Romania and Bill is a curse breaker in Eygpt. The fact two of her eldest sons found their jobs far far away from her says something. THE HOWLERS yall that is cruel just because you have to does not mean you should use it. Embarrassing your kids like that is never okay.

Her lack of respect for Sirius in his own home, when it pertains to his own godson, is disgusting. She acts like she is Harry's mother and while she may be seen as a surrogate she is not his godmother or guardian. While Sirius is a fugitive he is Harry's godfather she did not have any right to treat him as she did.

Her behaviour in the goblet of fire to Hermione before Harry opened his mouth. If it was because she thought Hermione was manipulating or hurting Harry the first thing she should have done was ask Harry about the article and not treat Hermione like that. If this was about Ron and his "feelings" for Hermione then she needs to keep that to herself nobody is obligated to date and marry anyone cause they have a crush on them.

Hermione Granger is often placed on a pedestal

Hermione like every character in this show is flawed as she grows she learns but she has some bad behaviours. She puts books and education before her own individuality and in the first book is a bit of a bossy snob that slowly changes over time. She follows authority without a thought too much for anyone's liking but that also changes but ummm y'all Hermione is dangerous she kept a woman in a jar, convinced Harry and Ron to drug and hide their year mates and then pretend to be them while providing the means to do so.

She uses a spell on a student to help Ron get on the team. Her hitting Draco is a thing of legend but Hermione is definitely not a goody two shoes. What scares me about that is that she hides this side of her behind her bookworm nice girl mask. Only Harry and Ron get to see how cruel and protective Hermione could be.

Ginny Weasley and Harry Potter bother me,

Everyone loves them and that's nice but umm she could pass as his sister. She is literally Lily Evans if she liked Quidditch and was a pureblood when I picked up on the distinction I wanted to vomit. Her description and Lily's are very similar with minor changes honestly this relationship bothers me.

Draco Malfoy was a bigot and racist but he also deserved a chance that is all I am saying on the Draco front.

HPMA RANT TIME

These are ALL WWW PRODUCTS-! Why the HELL is Zonkos selling these-??

“But Belladonna, they probably selling them because WWW stocks them-“

THEN WHY CANT YOU BUY ANYTHING IN DIAGON ALLEY?! Why can’t you go to WWW and buy anything?!

Instant Darkness was a LITERAL PLOT POINT in Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince

This is bullshit. Why can’t we have any interacting in WWW?! Did Fred really die for this?! Huh?! Really?! This is such bullshit these are all products that are from WWW. But nooooo we gotta sell em at Zonko’s. Not like WWW CREATED THESE OR ANYTHING!

Fred didn’t die for this. I’m so mad. George is running a shop all by himself and this is the thanks he gets? You don’t do ANYTHING at WWW. You can’t even go up the stairs.

Fred deserved better. Georgie deserves better. Come on man. Money grubbing game

[jinxedshapeshifter]

Okay, this is the LEAST of the issues with Harry Potter, but why don’t people ever talk about Angelina marrying George when they talk about Harry Potter?

“Dude what the fuck are you on about”

WHY DID SHE MARRY HER DEAD BOYFRIEND’S IDENTICAL TWIN BROTHER?????

Am I the only person who’s bothered by this??? It’s bothered me since I found out it happened, it feels like Angelina views George as a replacement for Fred and I fucking HATE IT.

Whatever happened to Graham Montague? The HP world will never know.

[dhampiravidi]

to all those fictional characters who deserved better…

imagine them all in whatever version of a good afterlife you want…TOGETHER. The chaos. And they can’t get away from each other 😈

tag those characters. How crazy are things?

for me, we’ve got (EXPECT SPOILERS):

‘23 Johnny “Soap” MacTavish

’09 Simon “Ghost” Riley

Simon Riley’s family (minus his dad)

MCU!Natasha Romanoff

MCU!Tony Stark

MCU!Loki Laufeyson (I don’t count the show)

Karlach Cliffgate (IF YOU KNOW)

Oedipus & Eurydice

Fred Weasley

Sounds good. The Riley-Mactavishes have a house next to their relatives. MCUs & Karlach are constantly making new inventions using their ideas & the inexhaustible magical resources of the land. Oedipus & Eurydice sing every sunrise & sundown. Fred’s besties w/Loki, who may or may not see him as a younger brother. Nat’s dating Karlach.

Fred & George's "victims" actually enjoy what Fred and George do to them and will volunteer to be a testor for their prank items.

Fred and George are funny to everyone, including the "victim".

The Marauders were terrible bullies, but don't let the sadistic twins off the hook.

Did Dudley enjoy his tongue swelling when Fred left him the tongue toffee? The whole Weasley clan (minus the parents) + Harry laughed about it you know, but the Dursleys sure weren't. And remember the Weasleys are supposed to be the tolerant muggle lovers.

Did Ron enjoy the twins constantly mocking and degrading him? Part of the reason why he had so many self-esteem issues was due to them. Did Ron enjoy developing arachnophobia because of them turning his toy into a spider?

Did Percy enjoy the twins locking him in a pyramid? Did Percy enjoy them sending dung to his workplace?? Did Percy enjoy them constantly mocking his ambition and making him feel like an outsider in his own family?

Did Montague enjoy being trapped in the vanishing cabinet? I believe the poor dude almost died!

Did Baddock the first-year Slytherin enjoy them mocking his sorting? These two were upperclassmen harassing first-years!

Did Filch enjoy cleaning up after all their numerous pranks? With no magic, I may add.

After seeing Snape's memories, I recall Harry saying that the twins would never do something like that to someone that did not deserve it. But he thought someone like Draco would deserve to be sexually assaulted like Snape was by said twins. Would Draco be laughing if the twins exposed his underwear to a crowd?

Hey, didn't the twins also put beetles in Bill's soup when they visited Egypt? Did Bill enjoy almost eating bugs? Who knows! I know I would not.

Rowling has a weird fascination with bugs and faeces/dung in Harry Potter for some reason.

The twins are not funny. Just like how the Marauders were not funny.

Not all examples I listed are pranks per se. However, their jokes are usually related to putting people down, especially Ron and Percy. Given their main targets are their own flesh and blood, they are worse than the Marauders in this way. Percy and Ron had to deal with these two both at school AND at home with minimal intervention from their parents.

People need to realize that Harry's POV is very biased toward the people he likes, including the twins. These two are awful people, and I would not have shed a tear if BOTH twins died.

They are very creative, I love their entrepreneurial spirit and they fought bravely in the war, but my admiration ends there.

The difference between James & Sirius and Fred & George is that Fred & George's "victims" actually enjoy what Fred and George do to them and will volunteer to be a testor for their prank items.

Snape never asked to be hexed, stalked, tormented or assaulted.

Bertram Aubrey didn't ask to have his head hexed double the size it normally is.

The unnamed students who are hexed by James Potter didn't ask for that either.

Fred and George are funny to everyone, including the "victim". James and Sirius are funny for people who don't like the victim.
